Part-baked rye bread with and without Ca-propionate (0.2 g/100 flour) were baked for 10, 15, 20 minutes at 230 degrees C and stored at refrigerator temperature (4 degrees C) for 10, 20, 30 days then second-baked for 5, 10, 15 minutes at the same temperature to give an oven-fresh end product. The effect of antimicrobial additive (Ca-propionate), part-baking, storage in refrigerator and rebaking on quality parameters such as yield of volume and crumb softness, water activity and pasting properties of rye bread crumb was evaluated. Addition of Ca-propionate increased bump area, while yield of volume and softness values of rye bread crumb decreased. The increase in initial baking time caused a decrease in the pasting temperature, water activity, and softness value and an increase in the bump area and viscosity of the rebaked bread crumb. Bump area and pasting temperature of rebaked rye bread crumb increased with longer (intermediate storage) time, while viscosity, yield of volume, water activity, and softness values decreased. A strong negative correlation was observed between pasting temperature and other parameters, which are bump area, peak viscosity, holding end viscosity, cooling end viscosity, and softness value for rye bread that was rebaked after part-baked and storing at refrigerator temperature. The re-baking rye bread after part-baking for 10 and 15 minutes and storage for 7, 14, and 21 days at refrigerator temperature gave softer crumb than the control group.
